Dominik Neubauer Video: Austrian Hostage In Yemen Appeals For Ransom Money With AK-47 Pointed At His Head Reuters February 23, 2013

VIENNA, Feb 23 (Reuters) - An Austrian man taken hostage
in Yemen in December has appeared in a video posted on YouTube,
saying he would be killed if ransom money was not paid to a Yemeni
tribe within a week.

Pictured with what appeared
to be an AK47 automatic rifle pointed at his head, Dominik Neubauer
said he was in good health and appealed to the Yemeni and Austrian
governments and the European Union to give his hostage takers what they
wanted.

"Mum, Dad, Lucas, Angela, I love you
more than anything. Up until now I am in good health," the 26-year-old
Arabic studies student said in the video posted on Feb. 21.

Neubauer was
snatched along with a Finnish couple by tribesmen in the centre of the
capital Sanaa on Dec. 21, according to the Yemeni government. Yemen has
said the three were later sold to al Qaeda members and transferred to
the small town of al-Manaseh south of the capital.

A
spokesman for the Austrian Foreign Ministry said on Saturday the
government was acting on the assumption the video was genuine, and was
in intensive contact with the Yemeni authorities and also with the
Finnish government.

"This is the first sign of life we have from Mr Neubauer," he said.

He
said Austria would not allow itself to be blackmailed, and said there
was no concrete group that had made itself known as the hostage-takers.

The
spokesman added that the ministry had received the video on Saturday.
He declined to say where the ministry had got it from.

"We
want to see the return of a healthy hostage," he said, adding that the
foreign, interior and defence ministries and the chancellery had been
in crisis talks on Saturday that would likely continue on Sunday.

The spokesman said he did not know whether Neubauer was still together with the Finnish hostages.

The
Finnish Foreign Ministry said the appearance of the video did not
increase the risks for the Finnish couple. "According to our
information, no similar threat has been published on the Finnish
couple," a spokesman said.

"The time limits are
common in these kind of demands, and often they are flexible. There is
no need to draw too many conclusions over this," he said.

Finland has several officials in Yemen working on the case.

Yemen
last month suspended a military operation against al-Qaeda-linked
militants in al-Manaseh while tribal leaders tried to secure the
release of the three hostages.

The army had begun
an offensive, in which about 8,000 soldiers were taking part, after
the militants rejected demands to release them.
